General safet
y summary
Review the fo
llowing safety precautions to avoid injury and prevent damage to
this product or any products connected to it.
To avoid potential hazards, use this product only as specied.
Only qualied personnel should perform service procedures.
To avoid re or personal
injury
Use proper power cord. Use only the power cord specied for this product and
certied for the country of use.
Connect and disconnect properly. Do not connect or disconnect probes or test
leads while they are connected to a voltage source.
Connect and disconnect properly. De-energize the circuit under test before
connecting or disconnecting the current probe.
Ground the product. This product is grounded through the grounding conductor
of the power cord. To avoid electric shock, the grounding conductor must be
connected to earth ground. Before making connections to the input or output
terminals of the product, ensure that the product is properly grounded.
Observe all terminal ratings. To avoid re or shock hazard, observe all ratings
and markings on the product. Consult the product manual for further ratings
information b efore making connections to the product.
Connect the probe reference lead to earth ground only.
Do not apply a potential to any terminal, including the common terminal, that
exceeds the maximum rating of that terminal.
Power disconnect. The power cord disconnects the product from the power s ource.
Do not block the power cord; it must remain accessible to the user at all times.
Do not operate without covers. Do not operate this product with covers or panels
removed.
Do not operate with suspected failures. If you suspect that there is damage to this
product, have it inspected by qualied service personnel.
Avoid exposed circuitry. Do not touch exposed connections and components when
power is present.

Specications
This chapter contains specications for the MDO4000 Series oscilloscopes. All
specications are guaranteed unless noted as "typical." Typical specications are
provided for
your convenience but are not guaranteed. Specications that are
marked with the
symbol are checked in Performance Verication.
All specic
ations apply to all MDO4000 models unless noted otherwise. To meet
specications, two conditions must rst be met:
The oscill
oscope must have been operating continuously for twenty minutes
within the specied operating temperature range. (See Table 12 on page 23.)
You mu st p
erform the Signal Path Compensation (SPC) operation described
instep2oftheSelf Test before evaluating specications. (Se e page 62, Self
Test.) If the operating temperature changes by more than 10 °C (18 °F), you
must perform the SPC operation again.

Table 2: Time base system specications (cont.)
Characteristic Description
The formula to calculate the delta-time measurement accuracy (DTA) for a given instrument
setting and input signal is given in the following table. (See Table 3.) The formula assumes
insignicant signal content above Nyquist and insignicant error due to aliasing. The
abbreviations used in the formula are as follows:
SR
1
= slew rate around 1st point in measurement (1
st
edge)
SR
2
= slew rate a round 2nd point in measurement (2
nd
edge)
N =input-referred noise (V
RMS
)(RefertoRandom Noise and Sample Acquisition Mode
specications.)
TBA = time base accuracy (5 ppm) (Refer to Long-term Sample Rate and D e lay Time Accuracy
specications.)
t
p
= delta-time measurement duration (sec)
RD = (record length)/(sample rate)
t
sr
= 1/(sample rate)

Delta-time m
easurement
accuracy
The term under the squareroot sign is the stability and is due to TIE (Time Interval Error). The
errors due to this term occur throughout a single-shot measurement. The second term is due
to both the absolute center-frequency accuracy and the center-frequency stability of the time
base and varies between multiple single-shot measurements over the observation interval (the
amount of time from the rst single-shot measurement to the nal single-shot measurement).

3: Delta-Time measurement accuracy formula
The terms used in these formulas are dened under Delta-time measurement accuracy, in the preceding table. (See Table 2.)

Attenuates signals below 45 Hz.
NOISE R EJ 2.5 times the DC-coupled limits
HF REJ
1.0 times the DC-coupled limits from DC to 5 0 kHz.

Triggers from negative sync composite video, eld 1, or eld 2 for interlaced systems, o n any
eld, specic line, or any line for interlaced or noninterlaced systems. Supported systems
include NTSC, PAL, and SE CAM.

For all vertical settings, the minimums are:
Trigger type Pulse width Re-arm time Time between channels
Logic Not applicable 2 ns 1 ns
Time Qualied Logic
4ns 2ns 1ns
Logic-type triggering, minimum logic
or rearm time, typical
For logic, the time between channels refers to the length of time a logic s tate derived from
more than one channel must exist to be recognized. For events, the time is the minimum time
between a main and delayed event that will be recognized if more than one channel is used.
For all vertical settings, the minimums are:
Clock active Clock inactive
User hold time + 2.5 ns 2 ns
Minimum clock pulse widths for
setup/hold time violation trigger,
typical
An active pulse width is the width of the clock pulse from its active edge (as dened in the
Clock Edge lower-bezel menu item) to its inactive edge. An inactive pulse width is the width
of the pulse from its inactive edge to its active edge.
The user hold time is the number selected by the user.

Input coupling on clock and data channels must be the same.
For Setup time, positive numbers mean a data transition before the clock.
For H old time, positive numbers mean a data transition after the clock edge.
Setup + Hold time is the algebraic sum of the Setup Time and Hold Time that you
programmed.

For the trigger class width and the trigger class runt, the pulse width refers to the width of the
pulse being measured. The rearm time refers to the time between pulses.
For the trigger class slew rate, the pulse width refers to the delta time being measured. The
rearm time refers to the time it takes the signal to cross the two trigger thresholds again.

For trigger after time, this is the time between the end of the time period and the B trigger
